Great advice! One thing I would add is to take the kids off their hands for a day if you can--take them to a museum or the park or something, to give their parent a breather, even if it's not during an interview. As we all learned during COVID, childcare burnout can be really hard on mental health, and if they're home all day job hunting, taking the kid(s) to do something fun on a random day can take a load off their mind.
